Background
share close

We hear about social and environmental impacts of livestock farming in rural Africa from Geoff Russell who’s the author of “CSIRO Perfidy” and a candidate for the Animal Justice Party in South Australia, and Gerard Wedderburn-Bisshop of the World Preservation Foundation and Beyond Zero Emissions. We also hear from Dr Marco Springmann of Oxford University about his team’s widely-publicised study of the astonishing projected benefits of vegan and vegetarian diets if widely adopted worldwide, and also from Dr Michael Greger from NutritionFacts.org who summarises research on the dietary links between health and climate woes.Photo acknowledgement:  Luca Esposti
